Crows won't copy Eagles in AFL final

Adelaide coach Scott Camporeale says it would be foolish for the Crows to try and copy West Coast's blueprint on how to topple reigning AFL premiers Hawthorn.

The Crows meet the Hawks in a Friday night semi-final at the MCG but Camporeale says how the Eagles dismantled the defending champions in last week's qualifying final is largely irrelevant to his club.

"We'll focus in on what we want to do ... we would be silly to sit here and say we're going to do exactly what West Coast did because we're not West Coast," he told reporters on Thursday.
